Abstract (en)

[origin: US2003117438A1] A system and method for using a control to manipulate data is disclosed. The data is stored in a memory and is manipulated by the control in response to inputs. The control may operate within an operating environment that managers the control. The control has a support members string to list controls compatible with the control. The control also has a pointer array with pointers correlating to the listed controls within the support members string. The control also has a type string to identify itself to the operating environment. The control accesses another control by determining whether the other control has been listed in the support members string. If yes, then the control accesses the other control for additional properties and methods.
